Cars

Jackson has become obsessed with the movie Cars. He watches it daily, sometimes twice daily (like today for instance.) I checked on him during his nap today and this is what I found.

Extreme Makeover, Young Women Edition

Rachel went to Activity Days for primary yesterday where the Young Women in the ward had a "Salon Day" for the younger girls. They put on makeup and did their hair and nails. You can't tell from the picture but she had blue glitter eyeshadow and mascara on. I had a glimpse into the future when I saw Rachel walk out of the room tossing her hair and strutting her stuff.

Poor Jackson

This is what happens when you have two older sisters. He is like their live dolly and their trained monkey.

Krista in the House

Our friend Krista came to visit us this past weekend. She and I were roommates at the University if Utah. She wanted to see our new house and I asked her to help me figure out how to finish decorating it. Krista has a Martha Stewart flair that I don't have.

She even sat with our kids during sacrament meeting while Lance and I gave talks. She was able to keep all three of our children inside the Chapel for the entire meeting. This is a feat that hasn't occurred since the birth of Jackson. I invited her to come live with us. For some reason, she said no......

I guess we made the right decision.....

We worried that moving the kids out of one school halfway through a school year and putting them into a new school would be a bad idea. However, Allison got an award yesterday at their new school that proved our therory to be incorrect. Her teacher thinks she is doing great in her new classroom and Allie now has a certificate to prove it. We are very proud of her and we are glad that she is adjusting so well to her new school.
